‘Sunlight in the Blue Room’ is an 1891 painting by Anna Ancher, an innovative Danish painter who was a central figure with the Skagen Painters. With its many shades of blue and the sunlight pouring through the window, the painting is one of her most famous works.

Those shadows cast by the foliage in the window are very evocative for me. The painting reminds me of summer afternoons at my grandparents’ farm. Some of my yesterdays.

Media Free Diaspora: Non-Violent Action


Have Courage–Be Kind

I do not agree with all of these. Some of these are emotional violence. However, many are useful and it's good to see we have so many options!

Yup. Some of these are an absolute no-go for me and mine. Others are tools in the toolkit.

I think you can also add Mastodon profiles to your RSS reader. But I haven't tried since I don't use RSS (I would like to, but I don't know what RSS reader should I use):

So it's also fine to use, say, Spotify from a free web browser to listen to music, because I'm just listening to other people's songs, as long as Spotify doesn't load proprietary javascript in my browser?

It's starting to feel like following dogma for the sake of following dogma rather than trying to achieve anything...

Excessive olfactory memory in the insomniac fruit fly mutant:

"we report our surprising findings that insomniac (inc) Drosophila short sleep mutants, which lack a crucial adaptor protein for the autism-associated Cullin-3 ubiquitin ligase, exhibited excessive olfactory memory."

And then the paper goes on to inquire into the molecular basis of this, and reports:

"find that a mild attenuation of Protein Kinase A (PKA) signaling specifically rescued the sleep and longevity phenotypes of inc mutants. Surprisingly, this mild PKA signaling reduction further boosted the excessive memory in inc mutants, coupled with further exaggerated mushroom body overgrowth phenotypes."

"Cognitive hyperplasticity drives insomnia", by Huang et al. (Sigrist lab) 2024

By the way the tools available nowadays for discovering scientific literature are remarkable. Two examples:

Ghost uses AI generated images of pugs (dog race) for their activitypub newsletter (@index). I guess they just switched rooms with the java dev room at FOSDEM?
